Choosing the right griddle may seem like a task that should be straight forward, however, there are different features that one may have that another does not.<\/p>\n

Appliances such as the electric griddle are able to be used for a variety of foods such as an elaborate breakfast or brunch, hamburgers, chicken breast, and much more. You can use the electric griddle to cook a meal for one or two or use it to make more food to feed a larger family.<\/p>\n

In this article we will compare two electric griddles that are made by Presto. Both of these are available on Amazon; the Presto 07061 model and the Presto 07062 model. Although their numbers are sequential, there are a few differences.<\/p>\n

Common Features:
\nPower Use and Requirements:
\nBoth of these appliances use standard electric service (120 volts), utilizing about 1500 watts of power for use, and feature a detachable electric cord.<\/p>\n

Basic Construction:
\nEach of these two models have a flat cooking surface, made from aluminum that is about 22-inches wide.
\nThese products are not bulky and can be used easily on a counter and are lightweight.<\/p>\n

The handles on both models are able to be removed, allowing for easy clean-up and minimizing the space needed for storage of the griddle when not in use. Both models, when the handles are removed, will store in a standard 18-inch cabinet.<\/p>\n

Cleaning:
\nCleaning up after use is fairly easy as the surfaces of both models presented here are non-stick and both utilize a convenient drip tray that is removed easily for cleaning.<\/p>\n

In addition, one very convenient common feature is that these griddles are able to be submerged for cleaning after removal of the heat control.<\/p>\n

Major Differences:
\nCooking Surface:
\nThe griddle cooking surface is different in these models. Model 07061 features a commonly used non-stick coating while model 07062 has a textured ceramic non-stick coating on the cooking surface that enhances the non-stick ability and allows for even easier cleaning.
\nThere is a slight difference in the cooking surface area with the area of model 07062 being almost 2 inches deeper. This is not a lot, however, when cooking breakfast for a large family, it will allow for 2 to 4 more slices of bacon on the cooktop.<\/p>\n

Weight:
\nThe model with the ceramic coating is a little lighter than the one with the standard non-stick cooking surface, weighing just under a pound less.<\/p>\n\n
